Now for some of the Week 9 details:
This year the project is worked in strips that are in rounds then attached(Mile A Minute). Part of the edging is worked in rows too! It is a Rectangular Afghan approx. 76″ x 48″ . You can make it in your choice of worsted weight yarn #4. Stashbuster, Ombre’, Self- Striping or even a color theme… At least 2 colors are recommended. I am making mine using the self striping yarn and complementing colors, but you can change colors each row or do yours in your own color scheme.
